    Used my new glasses at work for the first time yesterday and it’s crazy toggling between glasses/no glasses just how blurry the screen of the computer is without them, and I’d just been dealing with it for so long.

      Speaking from personal experience, as someone that got glasses relatively late in life, be very very careful going up and down stairs. Getting glasses really fucked over my proprioception, and several near disasters later I still find I have to take my glasses off to tackle stairs.
      I also found that my naked sight deteriorated very fast after I got glasses. Fewer headaches though.

        Appreciate the advice thank you! The optometrist started me on a lower than ideal prescription for that very reason, while I adjust. When I tried the correct prescription it was very disorienting
